Product Name –

Ammonium Polyphosphate

Product Description –

Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP) is a high-efficiency fertilizer widely used in agriculture. It is a water-soluble form of nitrogen and phosphorus, available in various molecular weights. This product acts as a nutrient-rich compound, often used to enhance soil fertility and stimulate plant growth.

Product Specification –

Chemical Composition: Ammonium Polyphosphate
Appearance: Transparent or colorless liquid or white granular solid (depending on the formulation).
Nitrogen Content: Typically 10-20%
Phosphorus Content: Around 30-50%
pH: 4.5–5.5 (liquid form)
Molecular Weight: 200-1000 (depending on the grade)

Product Benefits –

Improved Fertilizer Efficiency:  APP enhances the uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus, which are vital for plant growth.
Prevents Nutrient Leaching:  It ensures that the nutrients are efficiently absorbed by the plant, reducing wastage from leaching.
Increases Crop Yields:  By supplying both nitrogen and phosphorus in an available form, it contributes to enhanced crop productivity.
Improves Soil Structure:  This product improves the soil’s ability to retain moisture and nutrients.
Promotes Root Development:  The phosphorus in APP helps stimulate strong root development, vital for plant stability and growth.
Versatile Application:  It is suitable for a variety of crops, including cereals, vegetables, and fruits.

Application/ Usage –

APP is used as a liquid or granular fertilizer for crops. It is often applied directly to the soil during planting or as a side dressing to supply nutrients during the growing season.

Application time/duration –

Timing: Apply at planting or during key growth phases when nitrogen and phosphorus are most needed.
Duration: Nutrients are slowly released over time, so it can provide sustained feeding for weeks to months depending on environmental conditions.

Precaution –

Avoid direct contact with eyes or skin; wear appropriate protective clothing and gloves during application.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Ensure proper dilution if applying in liquid form.
Follow recommended application rates to avoid over-fertilization, which could harm plants.

Shelf Life –

The shelf life of Ammonium Polyphosphate typically ranges from 1 to 3 years when stored properly, in sealed containers, away from extreme temperatures and humidity.

Packaging –

Available in liquid form in drums, IBC totes, and bulk containers.
Granular form is available in bags or bulk shipments.
